The quality of the cosplay on display at C82 was not the only thing at a record high – with 560,000 attendees in total, on par with C78’s previous record, Comiket 82 may have been the most successful Comiket ever…

Same here, but then i remembered Rumiko Takahashi used many hair colors for her characters in manga tankobon covers. Ukiyo was much easier to recognize.
Makes an old fart otaku somewhat moved to see young cosplayers make older anime characters like these 2 from Ranma Nibunnoichi. Guess it was a classic, i loved it very much in early 90?s.

I definitely prefer Takahashi’s early works over her newer ones. Urusei Yatsura, Ranma and Maison Ikkoku are some of my favorite anime of all time. In the Day 2 gallery, there’s pics of a Benten/Lum cosplay duo which almost brought a tear to my eye.
